About me and my therapy practice

Hello, I鈥檓 Alicia, a qualified Counsellor and a registered member of the British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy (M网爆门). I take a humanistic approach, which means I see each client as a whole, capable and unique person rather than a set of symptoms. I believe that every individual has an innate capacity for growth, self-understanding and positive change when supported in the right environment. My style is calm and warm and you will feel supported and at ease. I aim to provide a space where your experiences are fully acknowledged, while working collaboratively towards a great self-acceptance and reduced anxiety.

I work with individuals struggling with a wide range of difficulties including low self-esteem, depression, anxiety and relationship issues. Whether you're navigating a specific difficulty or just feeling overwhelmed, I provide a safe and non-judgemental space where we can explore what's going on together. Each individual is unique and I work in an authentic way to allow your true nature to come through. It is a privilege to work with individuals and to offer a space for you to totally be yourself. You will be listened to and supported in a process to enable you to start living life in a way that has meaning to you. Central to our work is the rapport we build, creating a supportive setting where you can feel seen, heard and understood.

Practice description

I have worked in the NHS with a broad range of people, personalities, backgrounds and diagnoses.

I trained integratively and so have experience working with different theories and types of therapy. These include, Person-Centered, Psychodynamic, Transactional Analysis, CBT and Solution-Focused methods.

Everyone has their own story, which is why it is important to use the right therapy for you.

Are you pregnant and worried about motherhood issues? My practice includes supporting soon to be parents adjusting to this new chapter in their lives. I have become passionate about life as a new parent and developed a deep understanding of the unique emotional changes it brings.

I regularly work with clients in corporate industries, experiencing workplace burnout, anxieties and bullying. Prior to becoming a counsellor, I worked in a corporate role for over nine years. During this time, I developed a clear understanding of the impact stress and anxiety can have on the body and mind and an awareness of the life-changing benefits of therapy.

My first session

Sometimes people come to therapy with a clear goal in mind and others are unsure where to start. I offer a free 20 minute introductory phone call during which you can ask any questions you may have.

Sessions last 50 minutes. These usually take place on a weekly basis, and I have some availability for fortnightly sessions. I also provide a limited number of spaces for students for whom sessions are charged at a discounted rate.

Our first session includes an assessment to help us understand your goals and shape the therapeutic plan that works best for you.
